I have questions about getting your money back. How were you paid? Did the original scammer send you a check for the full amount you paid it and has that check cleared your bank account?
Did the scammer give you a credit on your credit card for the amount you originally paid?
Did the scammer send the money to BCA Recovery and then BCA Recovery send you a check minus its commission?
I ask these questions because a number of these "recovery firms" are really scams. Some of them may even be the same people that scammed you in the first place with the upfront fee.
This new scam is that, after the original scammer gives you a credit on your credit card, the "recovery firm" will ask you to send it a check as its commission. After that check has cleared, the credit on your credit card will be reversed. Then, you'll be out another $250 or so.
Please let us know what the process is. Thank you.
